Hopefully the short attached video works.  Excuse the mess on the bench, I was so surprised it ran I just video'd it quickly.

Running well Colin.

She sounded a wee bit retarded ignition wise and you could also try richening the mixture too. All these tweaks can be tried whilst she’s bedding in.

Think I'm going to try the alternate "Fast" spring.  When the run ended after 27 minutes the engine had just slowed a little too much and could not recover.  I think to run it faster, at least for a few runs, will help everything bed in a little better, plus  with it running faster I can have bit more of a play with the timing and mixture.

Congratulations on a wonderful runner!

It looks really nice and the sound is getting better as it runs.

Really good hit and miss action.

Thank You for posting,
